EXIT Realty pledges a half million dollars to Habitat for Humanity

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario (June 30, 2015) – EXIT Realty Corp. International has pledged $500,000 to Habitat for Humanity International in 2015, bringing its total pledges to $2.5 million to date.

Habitat for Humanity believes that every person should have a decent and affordable place to live, and through its worldwide network of volunteers, thousands of low-income families have found new hope in the form of affordable housing.

“A portion of every transaction fee collected by EXIT Realty Corp. International is pledged to Habitat,” says Christine Ireborg, EXIT Realty’s liaison with the organization. “To date, we have contributed both financially and with volunteer hours towards 19 home builds, the majority of which benefited families led by single mothers. We’ve participated in a community revitalization project and in the Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project. Along with this latest pledge, we are pleased to announce a new co-op program, where the local fundraising efforts of an EXIT Realty sales representative or broker may be matched by our fund.”

“We are grateful to EXIT Realty, its agents and employees for their commitment to Habitat’s mission,” said Larry Gluth, senior vice president, U.S. and Canada, Habitat for Humanity International. “Because of this partnership, more Habitat homeowner families have a safe, decent, affordable house to call home.”

Habitat for Humanity partners with families who invest sweat-equity hours in building their home and others. They make affordable down payments on a no-profit mortgage and attend homeowner education classes.

“Home is such an emotionally-charged word. Statements like, ‘Honey, I’m home!’ or ‘home for the holidays’ are filled with heart-warming sentiment,” says Tami Bonnell, EXIT Realty Corp. International’s CEO. “It’s a word that means comfort, safety, security and so much more. EXIT Realty is proud to work closely with the Habitat organization to help make the dream of homeownership a reality for families across the continent.”
